Christ Church Foundation School (CCFS) retained the Barbados Secondary Schools’ Under-15 netball title with a tense 21-18 victory over Queen’s College yesterday at the Netball Stadium.
In a repeat win over the same opponents from the 2018 final, the Church Hill lasses fought from a 5-7 first quarter deficit to hold slim leads of 11-8 and 14-12 before overcoming the pressure best in the final stretch.
Coach Sandrene Jordan was overjoyed with the victory.
“I am overwhelmed. I feel so proud of my girls. They were playing against a team with four Under-16 Barbados players and my girls showed their skills and proved themselves. Serena (Edwards) hurt her toe during the game and she battled through to the end,” said Jordan. (KB)
